The Duchess and her mum were joined by women from the Hubb Community Kitchen who served dishes from the new book to guests from the local community, plus representatives from the publisher, Al Manaar Muslim Cultural Heritage Centre and The Royal Foundation. Coconut chicken curry, aubergine masala and a range of chapatis and sharing dips were all on the menu.

The book includes over 50 recipes provided by the women in the Hubb whose community was affected by the Grenfell Tower fire. Speaking at the event, Markle told guests she was 'so proud' of the women, who will 'inspire people globally' through the project.

Markle, who first visited the Hubb's kitchen in January, wrote in the book's foreword: 'I immediately felt connected to this community kitchen; it is a place for women to laugh, grieve, cry and cook together.

'Melding cultural identities under a shared roof, it creates a space to feel a sense of normalcy – in its simplest form, the universal need to connect, nurture, and commune through food, through crisis or joy - something we can all relate to.

'Through this charitable endeavour, the proceeds will allow the kitchen to thrive and keep the global spirit of community alive.'

Proceeds from book sales will support the Hubb going forward, so it can widen its reach to others in the area.
